Journey to JADE

This is our incredible journey to adopt our daughter You Fu Rong from Youyang China. We call her Jade. She has been living in the Youyang Childrens Welfare Institue with wonderful caregivers. We could not have gone through this journey without all the faith and prayers of family and friends and welcome you to join with us in China as we bring her home to her forever family. "The Lord had one great things for us, and we are filled with joy". Psalm 126:3

JADES FINDING AD




She was so cute!! Here is a photo of the back basket like Jade was found in.




When a baby is found in China they are required to publish the babies photo and information about them in the local newspaper. Some papers are filled with pages of babies. Although it is sad the babies are abandoned, these finding ads are a blessing for those of us adopting them. It is a way to not only gather more information about her but to have the earliest possible photo of our baby. We ordered our ad and found out more fun information about Jade. The wording is translated like this
Name: You Fu Rong
Sex: Girl
Birthdate: 4/29/05
She is healthy
The date she arrived in the orphanage: 4/29/05
Finding date: 4/29/05
Finding location: The exit of Youyang Peach Blossom Garden Square, Chongquing
She is smart, and her crying was very loud
She had a back basket and a set of outfits with her when found.

WOW. We felt like we got such valuable information about her. We know that she must have been loved by her birth mom. It seems as if she was placed in an area where she was sure to be found and left with such love and care. I have uploaded a photo of a back basket for you to see. My friend Marieke sent it to me. (thank you Marieke)
